School closures thread

Just been discussing school closures on the Glasgow local pages and thought it might be useful to have a separate thread to spread the word if anyone knows about school closures. I can start the list by saying:

South Lanarkshire: all schools and council nurseries will be closed on Thursday (situation for Friday to be reviewed)

West Lothian: all schools shut for the rest of this week.

Please feel free to add to the list, wherever you are.

Having braved a drive from Pollokshields to Silverburn (for something I should have been able to do on-line but for various petty reasons couldn't), which was pretty hairy even though I know how to drive in snow and ice, I can understadn why the advice is still not to drive unless absolutely necessary.

M77 was OK, but St Andrews Drive, Dumbreck Road, Pollokshaws Road and the road that goes past National Savings (Barrhead Road) were all rutted ice Shock

I was glad I was driving on them when the roads were quiet.

We've barely been out in two weeks.

I wish we'd bought a tractor

What amazes me is that my children all knew that their Renfrewshire school was shut tomorrow before it was on either the Renfrewshire website or the school one. Bloomin' efficient grapevine.

So - downside is children underfoot tomorrow, but upside is not having to get up early to make sure they go to school.

Hurray DS1 back at school for first time since 26th Nov. DS2 primary still closed and not likely to open before Monday.

Falkirk area.

A bit milder today so may walk down to the village to see what supplies I can get. I wonder if the little chemist sells any decent perfume/aftershave that I could give for presents. Charlie Tweed or Panache all round!
